My community service project combines all aspects of fundraising and took place over the course of three months. I recruited my six Lone Star Princesses to assist in the fundraising efforts.  I designed and decorated "Princess Piggy Banks With A Purpose" and gave one to each of them eliciting their promise to return the piggy banks to me on May 21 full of money.  Each of them asked family and friends for donations and did, in fact, return the banks full of money to be donated to CMN.  My sister (Miss Colleyville) and I coordinated with Cara O'Dell, an Art teacher at Lucyle Collins Middle School in Fort Worth, Texas, and asked whether her art classes would be interested in participating in the "Pennies With A Purpose" campaign.  After meeting with her classes, Ms.O'Dell advised that her students would like to design a poster to promote the event and to participate by making blankets for the children at Cook Children's Hospital as well as collecting money.  As we continued our discussions, we asked whether her art students would be interested in designing a t-shirt for the "Pennies With A Purpose" campaign which we could then sell to make additional money.  She agreed that this was a great idea and the contest was held.  Kimberly Hall, a 13 year old special needs student, submitted the winning design.  We were able to get a donor to sponsor the printing of the t-shirts which we sold on May 21 in Colleyville to raise funds to donate to CMN.  I addressed the Colleyville Chamber of Commerce and asked the chamber members to allow us to place one of the "Pennies With a Purpose" containers in their stores.  Twenty-five businesses participated by placing the containers in their stores and allowed us to put our poster designed by the middle school art students in their windows and we collected money in this way.  On May 21, the fundraising campaign concluded with a final day of fundraising.  My six Lone Star Princesses, my mom and dad, my director, Ed Huckfeldt, his sons, Hayden and Hudson, and twelve middle school art and journalism students stood outside of Market Street in Colleyville and asked patrons for their spare change.  The fundraiser has garnered  $4,100.00 for CMN.
